Mixed Feelings
Welcome to season 4 of Arkansas A.W.A.R.E.!
In this episode we continue our discussion around concepts from The Atlas of the Heart by Brené Brown. Today the focus is on "places we go when things aren't what they seem" and mixed feelings like nostalgia, cognitive dissonance, and paradox. This brings up some of the concepts we have previously discussed, like the idea of "both/and," from the Surge Capacity episode. We also talk about the power of words and of grappling with definitions of feeling words.
Join Betsy Kindall, Nicole Fairchild, and Stacy Moore as they discuss issues related to mental health in education. Their conversations are witty and relate-able, simultaneously shedding light on issues that can sometimes be hard to confront or understand. These episodes are chunked into small bites and packed with information that would be helpful to educators, parents, children.....anyone! We want to help make everyone more A.W.A.R.E.!
Project A.W.A.R.E. is a grant program funded by S.A.M.H.S.A. (the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration). The Sandy Hook school shooting happened in December of 2012. In 2013 the White House initiative "NOW IS THE TIME" came out with 2 key goals:
1. Make schools safer and more nurturing.
2. Increase access to mental health services.
The "NOW IS THE TIME" initiative laid the foundation for federal grants like A.W.A.R.E. Arkansas applied for and received the second round of funding for A.W.A.R.E. in October of 2018. Our project is dedicated to Advancing Wellness and Resiliency in Education.
